+ 2 Do you take breaks form running gh?

ad

I've been getting conflicting answers on this so i figured i'd throw it out here and get some more answers.

So does anyone here take breaks from running gh? Or do you just run it all the time possibly varying the dose depending on whether you're blasting or cruising? I've been running it for about 6 months now. Started at 2 iu, worked my way up to 6 during a blast and then dropped it back down to 4 once i went back to trt only. Through out that entire time i had increased recovery speed, more restful sleep and an increase in speed of hair/nails growing. I've been running the same batch of gh this entire time. In the last few weeks i've noticed that my recovery isn't where it was 6 weeks ago and my hair/nails seem to be growing at the pre gh rate again. My sleep seems to still be better though. I haven't changed dosing in this time period either.

I have other vendors gh in the fridge ready to. But i wanted to get more opinions on whether or not taking breaks from gh is a good practice to do since i have gotten answers on both ends of the spectrum.

HGH only works in the long term, as far as its synergy with other compounds is concerned, for effects on mass maintenance or gain. It doesn't change almost anything in a short time of use, except for sleep and recovery. My opinion is based on my experience. I was using 4iu every day, I used it for 7 months straight, ED, I had no side effects, except for water retention. In my shins and feet... I thought it would be convenient to stop (It was a UGL). But I know people who use all the dosages all year round. I don't know, but I think that aiming for longevity, using it for 6-7 months, stopping for 3 months is interesting, aiming for performance, using it every day, all year round... one of the biggest bottlenecks is the possible problem with insulin sensitivity that you can end up developing, especially if your diet is Trash. I never had these side effects of blood sugar or retention when I ran for the same amount of time (6iu of Szen*, ED). In other words, there is a big difference between manufacturers. I'd stick with Pharma Grade. If I had infinite money, I'd use *Szen 6 Iu Ad Infinitum.

I've been running it year around ED for about 5 yrs now. It's true when you hear someone say: "How much HGH should I run?" "As much as you can afford". It's very much true IME. I've learned that under 8iu's ED you'll stay lean, sleep great, nice skin, good synergy with your gear. More importantly once you get up past lets say 12iu's ED -18iu's ED especially in the off season with high doses of Test(crucial). This is where HGH will actually put serious new tissue on you. High Test, PWO Insulin & 18iu single bolus shot right before bed & I'll wake up every day and look in the mirror and you'll watch yourself morph into a freaky mass monster. Your gym bros will be like holy shit...WTF

Ran 6iu a day for over 6 months with no adverse effects. Took a break but not due to concern. Stuff works wonders. Hopping back on next week.

First time I've heard this. So basically your body seems to have gotten use to taking GH at those dosages?
What was your score at 2IU? 4IU?

Black90tsi's picture

2.6 from K4L got me too 123, 4iu from Pomp's place got me to 181 and 5 from gd got me to 140.

That was my question about if long term usage can be gotten used to. I'm still getting mixed responses. My nails and hair still arent growing at the rate they were for the first few months. Recovery is def better than without but not as insane as it was in the first few months either.

Jockstrap's picture

Thats crappy igf1 scores. 4iu gets me 455. If youre not hitting 100 per iu its trash bro

Black90tsi's picture

I know its crappy. But i've gotten blood work from 4 different vendors so far and none have been impressive. While others have posted up great numbers form the same batches i've tested. Pretty sure i'm just a terrible responder.

Jockstrap's picture

That sounds like real talk bro. Damn frustrating for sure as hgh is damn pricey. Ive seen a few folks never got a good responce and it sucks. Id rather cheer folks to greatness

Black90tsi's picture

I might not have impressive test numbers. But i have noticed feeling more rested with less sleep and faster muscle soreness recovery. I'm not sure i get it on the level some of you other guys do. But it isn't me just pissing money away for no benefit at all. I'm going to take a month or 2 of after my next cycle and see if that resets the benefits to the level i was originally getting.

DeeMan's picture

That's the right mindset. Test scores mean nothing in your situation but results is what ultimately matter. So yeah not pissing away your money I agree. Like I said take time off and reset. I think you'll figure it all out.

I have read a lot since starting GH. I’ve only used since sept. I worked from 3iu to 7.5 currently (5iu nightly & 2.5 morning). This is bc I am at last push of cycle. Plan is to drop to 3iu when on cruise just to keep within the day burning properties.

I was curious about your numbers listed? Is that your IGF report from those vendors? Also how long have you been using the GH before you started to feel wasn’t as effective?

Black90tsi's picture

K4L was around 6 weeks at that dose. Pomp's was also around 6 weeks but I started at 2iu and slowly bumped it up by .5 every 3-5 days so long as it didn't give me any crazy side effects. I don't recall how long I was on the gd stuff to get that number. Over a month at the least. I'll have been on the current K4L stuff for 6 weeks when I got blood pulled Fri.

Being a decade younger plays a large role my man, but agreed you have a great natural score!

With us (comparatively) younger guys the baseline is a lot higher regularly. The drops from 30-40-50-60 are insane!

I think I remember some of those tests. Looks like you are just not as responsive to GH with those scores. But if you're getting results who cares right? So I understand your question and I'll just say this....stop using GH and then go back on and see if things are different. That's basically the only way you can find your answer if no one has experienced what you're experiencing. But yeah I understand what you're saying.

I thought it takes so long to even out and take effect then you reset that clock all over again. I think once you start the only reason for break is out of money.

I certainly get that if you're running some heroic 10+ iu dose you don't really want to do that long term. But from what I gather running a basic 2-4 iu can be done long term without any real negative sides once you get past the part of dealing with getting to said dose. I've been running between 2-6 iu for over a year now I believe. There's at least one vendor where that's anywhere from $1.20 to $3.60 a day.

Yes after china holiday stock up on that said vendor's HGH.

You mean you run a kit per month? So you're probably over 6IU/ day right if per week?

take what that pro told you and multiply that times 2 lol. Figured it was more than what he told you. Maybe I'm wrong though Lol alot of acromegaly action going on!

Brolly6898's picture

No acromegaly just fiber splitting action here it's how I got my forearms too 18inches

Black90tsi's picture

You mean that wasn't from all those marathon masturbation sessions!?

Well now I feel stupid for trying that.

Brolly6898's picture

Damn porn maybe Madison ivy, aj applegate and summer brille had too do with it lol

My man's over here looking like Popeye on one side and olive oil on the other.

Right forearm 18inch left 17.5 lol

Black90tsi's picture

I'm almost scared to ask. How big are your upper arms?

Brolly6898's picture

18.5 inches bro trying too reach 20 conditioned

Black90tsi's picture

So you literally look like popeye.

Got it.

Brolly6898's picture

Lol n olive oil

Black90tsi's picture

Is that what you've been using for all those forearm workouts?

Brolly6898's picture

Lol yeah when I masturbate jk
What i like to do after a back workout is workout bis n forearms
The goal is too reach 100 reps straight on the barbell curl wrist curl
95lbs 1st set is usually 50 too 70 reps

Black90tsi's picture

Is that all you do? Or do you try to work the forearms in all the different directions possible?

Brolly6898's picture

First of all i do not work arms directly
Always back bis n forearms
So I'll start with back doing 4 sets of lat pullsdowns behind the back
3 sets close grip pull ups
3 sets machine row or dumbell
3 sets hyperextension I use too do deadlifts but got lazy
After back it's biceps
The goal is too do 4 sets of 25 reps barbell curl(50lbs) using different grib positions
3 sets dumbell curl
3 sets hammer curl
After bis
Forearms
Barbell wrist curl
1st set 50-70reps
2nd set 30reps or until I reach 100reps
3 sets of 15 -25reps barbell behind the wrist curl
Farmer walk grab 2 45 plates and walk till failure
That's it

Brolly6898's picture

The MOST important thing is too stretch the bis n forearms between sets
Stretch the fascia too create more growth

DeeMan's picture

Sooo that's your secret. It's on now mofo!!! Nah man whatever you're doing it's working. Genetics play a part with your arms and forearms I'm sure

Brolly6898's picture

Genetics
Hormones also play a big part u wanna use anadrol and tne that increase diameter of the muscle

DeeMan's picture

Not an anadrol guy but figured genetics played a part, of course with hard work

Brolly6898's picture

Try using anadrol on pre workouts only
N u are correct genes come first
Mom grandma's on both sides had huge arms
Dad had little arms but big chest n glutes lol

DeeMan's picture

I hear you. My dad and grandpa had big arms.

But damn you said your Grandma...wow

DeeMan's picture

I remember seeing your arms and forearm. A little popeye action going on huh? Good for you man!

I was hoping you didn't have that Sargent Slaughter jaw. That dude had a jaw of a horse lol
